This came as a part of a bundle when I bought my Switch 2 in June. In this version all of the tracks in the game are part of one giant map, and there is a free roam mode where you can drive around and find secrets. It also has a new mode call Grand Tour where you race from one end of the map to another going through six tracks along the way. As you reach the end of each of these sections players below a certain position are out of the race. By the end there are only four people left, and the person in first at the end is the winner. I particularly enjoy this mode online, it is absolutely hectic especially at the start.
The races also have twenty four players at once, which is much more than the previous games. This can make it very exciting, but it has some downsides in that the tracks are now wider to support that amount of people.
The free roam mode mostly feels pointless to me, I’ve messed around in it a bit but quickly got bored. The Grand Tour mode can be very frustrating in single player mode as well. The standard Grand Prix mode is excellent as always though.
